Chapter 6: The Only Thing That Can Overcome Evil
On instinct Pam turned to freeze Cole. He stood frozen in time, and the girls were frozen in shock.
"Didn't you just tell us that he wasn't a demon?!?" Piper shouted.
"He must've come into contact with one of his kind." Pam reasoned.
"Well then what, there's a demon roaming around the set?" Asked Prue.
"He must be posing as a worker on the set. The Elders don't even keep track of all demons, they wouldn't know if one was here," explained Pam.
As she said this, she unfroze Cole while Prue, Piper, and Phoebe quickly backed away from him.
"What, what's going on? How did I get here? Shannen? Holly? Alyssa? Somebody explain this to me, please."
"We're looking for the same explanations Cole." Answered Pam.
"My name is Julian," he defended.
"No, it's Cole. Your name is Cole Julian McMahon Turner," Pam stated, obviously winning the argument.
"Who the hell are you? And how do you just happen to know my real name? I mean it was an odd coincidence when that was the name they gave me on the show, but now some stranger? Oh no, is she another one of the crazies?"
Cole was so shaken; he was resulting to Piper's vocabulary.
"No, well, it's a long story. All you need to know now is that the girls trust me, and you should too. Just tell me the last thing you remember."
Reluctantly, Cole began his recap of recent events.
"Well I was getting dressed for this afternoons shooting, when this thing appeared. The way it showed up looked just like the way demons appear in the show. He—shimmered. He started telling me about my destiny, and how I needed to come with him. He told me how I had betrayed all of my kind and disgraced my family, and now it was time for me to follow my true path in life. Well naturally I thought this guy was crazy. I thought I just didn't see him come in, and I just imagined he shimmered. I told him that I'd be happy to sign an autograph for him if he would come back after shooting, but he grabbed my arm and held it really tightly, he said I had to come with him. I was so angry that he treated me that way. He was talking about my destiny and I didn't even know him. He stared me down, and I had this overwhelming urge to kill. I was better than him, why should I let him touch me like that? I broke away from him and something materialized in my hand. It looked like an energy ball. I hurled it at him, and he just exploded into nothing. Then the feeling to kill went away, and I was left with the guilt of taking another's life. I was arguing with myself is my head, I couldn't stand it. I couldn't believe what I had just done. I wouldn't. The only person who could make it better was Alyssa. All I wanted to do was be with her. Then suddenly, I was."
"Wow," was all the four sisters could say.
"Now can you tell me how I got here?" Cole said, exasperated.
"Well, we think you shimmered. We think you're a demon," Pam said.
"That stuff doesn't exist. Are you still trying to convince me she's not crazy?" Cole said this while he talked to the three actresses he knew as co-workers, and he indicated to the crazy girl who just told him he was a demon.
"Magic isn't real. There aren't demons, or warlocks, or witches, or any of that!"
"You want me to prove it?" Pam defended. "Find then." She threw up a pillow from the couch, and froze it. She then blew it up and turned to Cole to see his reaction.
"Who are you?" Cole said, wanting answer to the question he asked quite a while ago, as well as an explanation as to what in the world just happened.
"I'm Pam. Pam Halliwell. I'm their sister. All four of us are sisters." Pam explained agitated
"What? They're not sisters. They're actresses. Just like I'm an actor. See, no magic. Don't tell me you guys believe her. How could you guys be related even remotely?" Cole concluded, too confused and freaked out to really even want an answer.
"Cliff Notes version," Prue started, "our real names are Prue Piper and Phoebe, and we all have the same father. Our mothers were sisters and didn't know they married the same man until our mother," she indicated to Piper, Phoebe, and herself, "well, killed her mother. As punishment for her evil doings, us three kids were separated into different families, and everyone's memories were changed to think that we always lived with those families. Then we would all come here, by chance, and learn about all about magic without thinking it was real. Then when we were ready, our older sister would come down from "Up There" to pass our power unto us," Prue finished with a huff. That was more then she thought she understood.
"Oh and as for you," Phoebe said, talking to Cole, "You're supposed to be a very powerful demon, but when you were supposed to receive your powers, you experienced true love. So from then on, your powers wouldn't awaken until you came into contact with one of your kind. In this case, it was that demon that shimmered into your dressing room. So----now you're a demon," Phoebe said reluctantly.
"True love?" Cole questioned, "but if I felt it then, and it stopped me from becoming a demon, how come it didn't stop me now? I mean, I'm still in love." Phoebe and Cole smiled at each other, knowing they were meant to be together. But with the knowledge of his true self, it would be hard for love to prevail over evil.
"Even though you're still in love, your demonic powers rose too quickly for your control. But the fact that you felt remorse after killing someone, even though it was a demon, was a sign that you haven't taken on full demonic form yet," Pam reassured.
"So there are ways to stop this, right? As long as Alyssa, uh, Phoebe and I are in love, I won't become a demon?"
"Well you weren't supposed to become a demon unless you came into contact with one, which you did, so I guess the best way to stop you from taking on full demonic form is to keep you out of the contact of demons. The love helps too though," she added, happy that her sister was happy.
"Won't that be a little difficult, you know since we're The Charmed One and everything? Won't demons be coming all the time? If Phoebe really loves him and wants to be with him, how can we keep him away from the demonic attacks?" Questioned Piper. Kajeebus this was a lot to take in. Since when were all these people in love?
"Well Pam said that love is the only thing that can overcome evil. So as long as they love each other and we keep Cole away from evil, we'll be fine. Right?" Prue was glad to have things in perspective. She was used to being the oldest, but didn't mind that Pam was taking control.
"Right," Pam said in a reassuring tone, "But there's still the matter of your powers. We have to say the spell now. Demons don't wait for invitations."
A/N: Did I get too off track from the story? I will seriously just stop writing if it's getting really bad. I want you guys to feel free to flame, give suggestions, anything. There's no point in continuing is my audience doesn't like the story. Oh and when Piper say Kajeebus, it's just a word I made up. It's kinda like OMG, just made by me. It'll be coming to a town near you soon.
A/N: Hope you like it.
